Soho House Hotel, Istanbul
Expert reviews
“The building—an ornate 19th-century palazzo, all marble and frescoes—is pretty head-turning, and bedrooms occupy a glass annex, tricked out in the brand’s instantly identifiable style with a Turkish twist.”

A hidden garden in the city
The hotel is lovely and lively, and even though there was a lot going on and loud music playing in the evening, the room was very quiet. Loved the abundance of choice for skin care amenities! Remzi arranged dinner reservations, tours and a hammam visit for us, and we felt very taken care of!
We didn't love the tour guide the hotel arranged...(it was an agency, and I don't think they chose the guide directly.) There was a lot of pressure to buy things we didn't want from her friends at the market. Other than that everything went very smoothly.

Great Gem in the middle of Beyoğlu. Neighborhood and all important sights are easy to reach, if you are a good walker, as Beyoglu is quite steep. Interior, food & staff were incredible & outstanding. Well be back for sure!

Great stay, great staff, beautiful hotel
The location, the home away from home atmosphere, the friendly staff, the little goodies in the bathroom: cremes, deodorant, toothbrush, razor, lip balm and even condoms 😃🙃!
The lights are too dimmed in the corridors which makes it difficult to read rhe room numbers! Bathroom needs a bot of renovating but the whole stay was great.

A wonderful stay in a gorgeous hotel - staff couldn’t have been better either
We came for my 40th birthday and the staff couldn’t have made us feel more welcome or made it a more special trip. The hotel is beautiful, attention to detail is incredible and we had a free upgrade, our room was stunning! We loved our time here and only wish we could have stayed for longer!
Nothing, it’s a beautiful hotel with fantastic staff

Great hotel for Istanbul and great staff
Very clean and pretty and the staff was super helpful. Rumsey was always going out of his way to make sure we were taken care of.
No atm and getting taxis seemed to be difficult.

It’s good to feel at home.
Soho House Istanbul, what careful attention and zealous attitude you welcome your guests with. History builds on top of history among your halls; culture and art mingle into a community of muse. You’ve built a balanced reclusive atmosphere and it shows. Once a home to the US embassy, now a home for the creatives of neighboring countries and every corner of the world. We spent a week among peers, and what a week it was.. filled with art, olfactory stimulation, and outstanding culinary abundance. It’s good to feel at home.

Yes it's worth the hype!
The Soho House hotel in Istanbul is amazing! All aspects of the stay, including the drinks, accommodations, shower amenities, rooftop bar, gym, and staff, were simply first class. I am now willing to become a member of Dumbo House Soho!
We loved everything wish I stayed longer!

Pleasant but bad location
Staff went above and beyond to take care of everything from booking hair salon to booking cars in advance.
The rooms are so dark I can barely see my makeup as I am applying it. The location was also terrible as it is next to the cheapest street in istanbul. Soho is known for culture, this was in the middle of dirty streets.

A very beautiful hotel with outstanding service!
The bathroom is a bit too small with almost no space to put hygiene stuff.

Amazing location, decent enough hotel if you can spend the money
Amazing location, access to the Soho House members club was great, lovely garden area, super comfortable bed!
English language wasn’t most staff members strong point! We got by, but just about. Room was fairly modest for the price, overall the place was great but the very high price point makes you more critical.

Exceptional service and a truly memorable stay
It was in a perfect location, extremely attentive and friendly staff especially the main receptionist/concierge who made so many bookings for us. We are so grateful for all that was done for us making our stay so wonderful

We had a glorious stay here - it was the perfect sanctuary to retreat to whilst enjoying this bustling city. Would defin
excellent location and very comfortable room and facilities
the booking.com description said breakfast included, but when we arrived at the property it said that it wasn’t - this was the only disappointment.

A little style over substance at times. Very few complaints

Beautriful hotel, great location and lovely vibe about the place.
The property is stunning, so worth the room choice we made of Medium +. Really great size, with sofa/coffee table area and very large walk-in bathroom with lovely free standing bath and shower cubicle, toilet cubicle. Being able to use next door and the Soho House club spaces was great and ate at their restaurant on night 1. Gym downstairs was huge! amazing facilities and staff on front desk always so friendly and helpful. We often stopped by for a drink in the courtyard too. Loved this place.
It’s a minor point but the bathroom lighting was dim so not easy for make-up application and the hairdryer was very poor, conked out so had to get a second but over-heated and very poor quality - so take your own! not what you expect in a place like this! oh we also happened to be there on election day so no alcohol could be purchased!!

The rooms and restaurants were great.
I think it would be better to have more light in most of the areas including halls,rooms and the elevator .
27 May 2023
It might be one of the best places to be in Istanbul.
Cosy house with very great room interior. Really discreet and very obliging staff..
That I am so seldom there. And that a lot of 5 Star hotels worldwide are not achieving this level of distinctive service quality

Absolutely perfect!
Everything was absolutely perfect - the service, facilities, staff, room view and birthday congratulations with a dessert and a bottle of wine.

great property if you want to stay in the newer part of Istanbul
The staff was great! The front desk team helped me immensely! the facilities were good. they upgraded me to a duplex so bonus points for that. They got my name listed in the soho club as well.
- unrelated to the hotel review - the soho club area’s staff could learn from their hotel counterparts and improve on service and welcoming and just being a little more friendly.

First time to Istanbul and I will definitely return.
The location was much easier than I expected, very friendly staff, lovely breakfast including in the garden when the weather was good and the rooms were a good size. Great bathrooms!
The rooms on the second floor did have a bit of traffic noise. Next time I would ask for a higher floor.

we will come back for sure
every thing is perfect!

Great hotel, solid location. Bathrooms were a bit too dark, but overall we would stay here again.
